Update Harmonic Vibration Analysis properties

This example demonstrates how to connect to the Sherlock gRPC service, import a project, and configure harmonic vibration analysis properties.

Description

Sherlock allows you to perform harmonic vibration analysis. This script performs the following steps: - Connect to the Sherlock service. - Import a project. - Configure the properties for harmonic vibration analysis.

Connect to Sherlock

Connect to the Sherlock service and ensure proper initialization.

sherlock = launcher.connect(port=9092, timeout=10, transport_mode="wnua")

Delete Project

Delete the project if it already exists.

try:
    sherlock.project.delete_project("Test")
    print("Project deleted successfully.")
except Exception:
    pass

Import Tutorial Project

Import the tutorial project zip archive from the Sherlock tutorial directory.

try:
    sherlock.project.import_project_zip_archive(
        project="Test",
        category="Demos",
        archive_file=os.path.join(get_sherlock_tutorial_path(), "Auto Relay Project.zip"),
    )
    print("Tutorial project imported successfully.")
except SherlockImportProjectZipArchiveError as e:
    print("Error importing project zip archive.")

Update Harmonic Vibration Properties

Configure properties for harmonic vibration analysis.

try:
    # Update properties for harmonic vibration analysis
    sherlock.analysis.update_harmonic_vibe_props(
        project="Test",
        harmonic_vibe_properties=[
            {

    print("Error updating harmonic vibration properties.")
